Sticker Pals are a colorful group of hand-animated sticker friends to play in your Messages, you can drag them to react to conversations or post them by themselves to help you convey feelings, sometimes describe strangely specific situations, or just spark spontaneous silliness with over a hundred animated expressive poses. There’s also hundreds of additional prop and reaction stickers to layer on top, I went a bit overboard with it all :P

The last few years, I’ve had an incredible experience partnering Impending and Realmac to create a fully interactive and animated pet for the iPhone, and its now finally ready for its first steps into the wide world. I basically dived into the deep end of animation and learned sooo much in the process, so forgive any rough edges, but I think it’ll steadily improve as I keep learning more and revise my process. That said, I couldn’t be happier with how it’s all come together and how much life we’ve been able to instill.

Hatch exclusively features my artwork with over 15,000 frames of layered animations and environmental depth with parallax, plus I’ve drawn dozens of collectible goodies and decorations for your pet and its surroundings. There’s even some wallpapers generated by the app to match the color of your pet, so if you’ve enjoyed the work on my site over the years, I think you’ll really appreciate all the eye candy we’ve managed to cram into one app.

If you have some time and could use a good friend, I’d love for you to check out Hatch! I hope you love it as much as it loves you :D

Between brainstorming and projects and my daily doodling time, my sketchbook and computer are full of sketches that very few people would ever see. If you’re interested in getting a peek at them, I’ve started a sketches tumblr that will be updated daily-ish with new sketches and old buried gems that I dig out of folders and sketchbooks of old. Drop on by if you’re a fan of line work!

As you’ve probably noticed from my drawings, I *love* animation. I’ve always dabbled in it, but never tried it seriously. Well, I’ve jumped in the deep end and I’ve been hard at work the last few years on my own game at Impending. I’m super happy to announce Hatch! It’s scheduled for this spring but you can early adopt a fugu egg with some exclusive colors before it launches.

Twitterrific 5 has been released! Nearly everything has been rethought and refocused on simply reading your tweets as well as making things easier and more fluid overall, while still being Twitterrific at the core. Even Ollie, our bluebird mascot has been refined. I hope you enjoy it!

I had a fantastic time at the opening night of my show at Land Gallery in Portland, and now all the new drawings I created for the Land Gallery show are available as prints in various sizes (but the large format prints are the most awesome!).

If you’re near Portland, Oregon this September, swing by the Land Gallery for a big solo show of my artwork, including 18 new drawings! I’ll be there for the opening on the night of September 7th so stop by and say hello if you can. The show runs through the 30th, featuring over 30 large prints to take in a the detail and colors.

Over the next few months, I’ll be putting up prints and wallpapers for the new drawings, I hope to see you at the show and if not, I hope you enjoy the new artwork!
